contents We investigate the curvature of Eschenburg spaces with respect to two different metrics, one constructed by Eschenburg and the other by Wilking. With respect to the Eschenburg metric, we obtain a simple complete characterization of the curvature of every Eschenburg space in terms of the triples of integers defining the space. With respect to Wilking's metric, we study all the examples whose natural isometry group acts with cohomogeneity two. Here, we find that apart from the previously known examples with almost positive curvature, all the remaining examples have open sets of points with zero-curvature planes.
